“TCPN is pleased to partner with Toro on a grounds-keeping solution,” said TCPN Vice President Chris Penny in the announcement. “The entire Toro portfolio of products, including mowers, irrigation, utility vehicles and more are available through this contract.”
Toro’s contract with TCPN began Oct. 1, 2014 and will last three years.
